Doing things out of sequence can have undesirable results. If you are in pain, it may mean that the teeth are moving too quickly. One of the touted advantages of Invisalign is that they are fairly painless and are designed to minimize discomfort. Also, that given cost is based on the number of trays and length of treatment, I would also recommend against jumping trays. They should always be replaced, in order, every 10-14 days, depending on your needs. However, without all the information, I can't really give any other advice. Like the other two doctors, I would highly recommend speaking to your dentist about this and clearly express your reservations. Your teeth are too valuable to take unnecessary risks with.
